The Complete Guide to Alethena’s Share Dispenser

Get Ready!

Install MetaMask and connect to the Share Dispenser (there will be an automatic pop-up once you loaded the website). MetaMask is a great piece of software you can use to manage all of your ERC20 Ethereum tokens. The wallet is an extension you can add to your Chrome, Firefox, Brave, or Opera browser.

Get a small amount of Ether, e.g. 0.1 ETH, in order to pay for the smart contract executions. You can choose the crypto exchange of your choice.

Payments should be made in Crypto Francs (XCHF). Therefore the next step is to obtain a sufficient amount of XCHF for your purchase. Smaller volumes of XCHF can be bought and sold for ETH on IDEX and Token Store, both decentralised exchanges, or on Uniswap, a simple smart contract interface for swapping ERC20 tokens. For larger amounts please visit here (the minimum volume for both issuance & redemption directly through Swiss Crypto Tokens is CHF 50’000).

Buy Your Shares!

Assuming that you have a sufficient amount of XCHF on your account, select the number of shares to buy in the Share Dispenser frontend. The minimum amount is fixed at 20 shares per trade. Now click on “Buy Now”.
